Belle And Sebastian — When We Were Very Young

    	    	Вступление

[Verse 1]

Em
 I can see mountains
G
 I can see sky
            D
I sometimes wish that I was blind
             C
To all the futures that we left behind
Em
 I walk on shaky ground
G
 Nervous, I leave the house
       A
In the dark before the dawn
      C
A commuter with no place to run

[Chorus]

C                                  Em
 I wish I could be content with the football scores
Am                                  D
 I wish I could be content with the daily chores
        Dm                     G     E7
With my daily worship of the sublime

[Verse 2]

Em
 Last night, I was afraid
G
 My head was locked in pain
            D
I thought a person could go mad
           C
No one can help you when it gets this bad
Em
 But I thought about your way
G
 I had a picture of your face
      A
I was wishing you the best
            C
Sending you love with evеry tired breath

[Chorus]

C                                  Em
 I wish I could be content with the football scores
Am                                  D
 I wish I could be content with the daily chores
        Dm                     G     E7
With my daily worship of the sublime

[Instrumental]

|A      |A7      |D      |D
|Bm     |Bm      |E      |E

[Verse 3]

Em
 When we were very young
G
 We loved our selfish fun
   D
We cared what people thought
C
 About our selfish words
Em
 You could not tell us then
G
 How much we wouldn't care
              A
'Bout all the mindless trivia
              C
Now we've got kids and dystopia

[Chorus]

C                                  Em
 I wish I could be content with the football scores
Am                                  D
 I wish I could be content with the daily chores
        Dm                     G     E
With my daily worship of the sublime
C                                  Em
 I wish I could walk away from my scars and sores
Am                                 D
 I wish I could walk away from the 'No one gets me'
        Dm
From my sense of envy
       G       E7
To the benign

[Outro]

C                                  Em
 I wish I could be content with the football scores
Am                                  D
 I wish I could be content with the daily chores
        Dm                     G     E7
With my daily worship of the sublime
C                                  Em
 I wish I could be content with the football scores
Am                                  D
 I wish I could be content with the daily chores
        Dm                     G     E
With my daily worship of the sublime
C                                  Em
 I wish I could walk away from my scars and sores
